Don't trust the CBO, but not for the reasons they're telling you
Posted July 03, 2017 01:09 PM by Logan Albright 

 

 The Congressional Budget Office is intended to be an objective, non-partisan source of information, telling the American public how much a proposed legislation will cost them. As an “official” source of statistics, most people — at least the ones who pay attention to such things — accept the department’s rulings as fact without a second thought. This is a mistake.

The Hill is reporting that members of the Senate GOP, displeased with the CBO’s score of the latest health care proposal, are putting pressure on the department to revise its numbers.
